Abstract:
The present invention provides a charging system for a transportation system without a contact wire having a configuration in which a power storage device of a vehicle is charged by a charging device provided on the ground when the vehicle equipped with the power storage device stops at a station on a track. In the present invention, the track includes a first track and a second track, the station includes a station controller which detects stopping of the vehicle, the charging device includes a first power line for supplying power to a vehicle on the first track and a second power line for supplying power to a vehicle on the second track, the first power line and the second power line each include switching means for controlling flow of the power supplied from the charging device, and the station controller controls the switching means, thereby causing the charging device to charge any of the vehicle on the first track and the vehicle on the second track.
